I Forgot To Be Your Lover Lyrics - William Bell

Have I told you lately that I love you? 

Well, if I didn't darling, I'm sorry 

Did I reach out and hold you in my loving arms 

Oh, when you needed me? 

Now I realize that you need love, too 

And I'll spend my life making love to you 

Oh, I forgot to be your lover 

And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry 

Have I taken the time to share with you 

All the burden that love will fare? 

And have I done the little simple things to show you 

Just how much I care? 

Oh, I've been workin' for you, doin' all I can 

To work all the time didn't make me a man 

Oh, I forgot to be your lover 

And I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you somehow, baby 

I forgot to be your lover 

Gonna make it up to you somehow 

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby 

I forgot to be your lover 

If you forgive me, I'll make it up to you 

I'm only a man, and I forgot to be ....
